Instead of creating the average coffee shop, the designers behind the idea went with a [jungle-themed motif](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/john-dessarzin-jungle-sanctuary) instead. The cafe is made up of various levels, with long, jungle-like branches hanging down on all sides. No matter where you are sitting, it feels as if you are in the middle of a rainforest, enjoying a nice hot latte. At night the lighting is dimmed too, adding to this closed-in effect that happens with the dense forestry found in the rainforest. A water garden was even put in place to add to the jungle-inspired look of the place.
